Extension:
    Form SD, SEC File No. 270-647, OMB Control No. 3235-0697

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget this request for extension of the previously approved 
collection of information discussed below.
    Form SD (17 CFR 249b-400) under Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 
U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (``Exchange Act'') pursuant to Section 13(p) (15 
U.S.C. 78m(p)) of the Exchange Act is filed by issuers to provide 
disclosures regarding the source and chain of custody of certain 
minerals used in their products. The information provided is mandatory 
and all information is made available to the public upon request. We 
estimate that Form SD takes approximately 541.3596 hours per response 
to prepare and is filed by approximately 1,481 issuers. We estimate 
that 75% of the 541.3596 hours per response (406.0197 hours) is 
prepared by the issuer internally for a total annual burden of 601,315 
hours (406.0197 hours per response x 1,481 responses).
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid control number.
    The public may view the background documentation for this 
information collection at the following website, www.reginfo.gov. 
Comments should be directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and 
Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503, or by sending an email to: 
[email protected]; and (ii) Charles Riddle, Acting Director/
Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o

to: [email protected]. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 
days of this notice.

    Dated: December 5, 2019.
